Seems like you covered it - anything other than memcmp() is going
to require a lot of brainz and have lots of sharp edges.

Why is that so ugly? Seems the most logical route. And even if
we don't get all of them right away (e.g. not 'enforced' right
away), we're no worse off than we are now, but we don't have to
dive into retraining equal() or touch any other parts of the code.
